We are seeking an engagement developer who wants to help strengthen young people's opportunities to influence society in Värmland.
As an engagement developer, you are responsible for creating engagement, building relationships, and implementing activities that strengthen youth influence and participation. You work closely with young people, but also with decision-makers, professionals, and other partners who want to develop their work with youth influence.
About the Project
Youth Hub Värmland is a development project where Youth 2030 Movement, together with Region Värmland and other regional and local actors, is exploring how the public sector can better include young people in decisions and societal development. Through workshops, dialogues, pilots, and co-creation with young people, the project develops new ways of working and structures that enable youth influence. The role is based at the Region's office in Karlstad and involves travel within Värmland.
About Youth 2030 Movement
We are a small organization where everyone contributes to the association's overall work as needed. We support each other and participate in shared activities.
Youth 2030 Movement is a non-profit association that brings together democracy activists, young leaders, children's rights advocates, and allied adults. We are convinced that Sweden needs a power shift – that democracy becomes greater and stronger if young people have more influence over societal development.
We have our sights set on 2030. Until then, we are fighting for a lowered voting age and to change how decision-makers in municipalities, regions, and authorities view young people. We do this by challenging, supporting, and contributing new ways of working, analyses, and proven methods for inclusion.
We will not stop until every young person in Sweden has the power to influence society and their own lives. Together, we break down barriers between youth and power.
About the Role

An important part of the role is recruiting and supporting young participants, leading workshops and dialogues, and creating meetings where young people and adults can meet and learn from each other. You use Youth 2030 Movement's methods and ways of working and contribute to developing them together with colleagues and partners.
The role suits you if you enjoy building relationships, making people feel included, and turning ideas into practical activities. You need to be comfortable working both independently and with others.
